cannonball endurance run and shinya

Browsing my favorite blogs and Shinya’s is at the top of that list. Ayu posts for him often. Lately they have been involved in the coast-to-coast Cannonball Endurance Run. It’s basically a route from Kitty Hawk, NC to Santa Monica, CA, and to enter your bike cannot manufactured past 1915. The entrants seem to be mostly American-made scoots, because I imagine old British bikes don’t often get transported over the Atlantic just to run a grueling 3000-mile trip.

Regardless, Shinya’s of my favorite builders, he’s running the Cannonball on a 1915 Indian twin and man, does he look wiped out.

The only bikes that are British built are a 1907 ***, a 1913 BSA, and a 1913 Premier.
